GitHub Team Enablement Workshop

GitHub skills are absolutely essential for professional software development. Many experts agree that you need to know how to use a modern version control system for development, testing, or deployment jobs. Surprisingly these required skills rarely appear on job descriptions or mentioned in interviews because they are regarded as regular activities in a complex product development environment.

So GitHub skills are enough, right? Not really! The game changes when many team members touch the code. Collaboration is also needed to deploy a stable environment to eliminate wasteful production bugs.

Do you want to quickly be immersed in this environment to put the phrase “works well in a fast-paced complex environment” on your resume?

This three-hour GitHub workshop offered by Ready Set Agile is an opportunity to get that hands-on experience needed to collaborate effectively to deliver working content in a fast-paced environment. No knowledge of software development or a coding language is required, however, you will need to bring your own machine with git or a tool that supports GitHub installed. Some examples are VS Code, Eclipse, InelliJ or GitHub desktop. A basic working knowledge of git is very helpful. Be familiar with the terms “clone” and “commit”.

The Hello World exercise is an excellent way to be ready for this workshop.

You should leave this workshop with the confidence to work on a similar team with mixed experience levels using a tool that many organizations take for granted.
